Specialist SEND Teacher to teach students with complex SEND job summary

We are looking to recruit a full-time Teacher for mixed ability students in the KS2 and KS3 range. You will be teaching pupils who often have significant gaps in their learning and are learning below national expectation.

The duties will include all aspects of teaching pupils a bespoke curriculum tailored to their individual needs and, as stated, would encompass all areas of the curriculum, both core and foundation.

We are proud of our young people, whose behaviour, achievements, and character shine every day. Guided by our community ethos — “Be inspired and achieve together” — we provide daily opportunities for success, growth, and collaboration.
